I have a 16.5 ft MFG 1972. My identification plate is totally worn out and I would like to edentify exactly the boat I own. I have heard of Lapstrake, tri hull, bowrider etc. What are the characteristics of each for identification purposes? 
<br /><br />Thanks in advance,<br /><br />Liam<br /><br />ps the hull looks like clapboard siding - maybe this is whats meant by lapstrake??
